The Ghana Police Service says no person or vehicle was shot at in the Assin North constituency during Tuesday's by-election.
The Police in a statement however noted that, they were pockets of incidents, including an alleged incident of an individual shooting into the air.
The police added that “all the recorded incidents are being investigated and Police have also arrested some suspects who are in custody assisting our investigation.”
